First time on theme this week...

LOL!! We don't have any animals in our house, and I don't know of any to photograph. And after seeing 2hooisers1gem Jessicas dd with her teddy bear it gave me an idea. Meet Teedy Bear, or Mr. Bear... 26 yrs old. He was my teddy bear since I was born, he has been drug through water, mud, had an eye replaced,lost a nose, restitched and restuffed many times. But he has definately been loved!! It means a lot to me that I still have him! While I was taking these pics my ds kept trying to take him, give me teddy!! We have had it up in his closet because he needs to be restitched and restuffed again before he is passed on. TFL!!

How sweet that you still have him. He definitely looks well-loved. Love all the processing you did. Very nice!

AWW! Mr. Bear is beautiful in his own way! I still have my bear from when I was born- he looks about as good as Mr. Bear, lol! My dd plays with him now (not the one in her bike basket though, my grandma made that one for her when she was born).

What a sweet bear; reminds me of the Velveteen Rabbit. Love the texture/background with this.

Great pictures, he looks well loved! I've still got "Beary" who is 46 1/2 years old, I should go dig him out for a photo session :)

Tera these are so ADORABLE! I love how old and used he is and how he's being passed down. Super sweet! Great composition too! That's a cool background add in, in the last shot. Hmmm, wonder if i could make something like that. Super super cute :)

How nice of you to support Indie Jane too :)

Reminds me of my sister's bear "tommy". at 34, she still has hers too! I love that bear, I'll bet he'll look great in some photos with your little ones.

I have some old stuffed animals like this...I love them now just as much as when I was little LoL- And I think the one with the added background looks good!

Amy said...

Definitly looks like he's been through a lot in his 26 years :) Love that background!

I enjoyed these very much. I like the frame you used on them too.

Mandy said...

Oh I just love people who have really loved stuffed animals. I have one too..mine is a lamb, and I can't manage to let the kids play with it. I really love the first one because we get the whole view of how cute he really is.

Becky said...

Your borders and background work great with your teddy. I like the composition too. My DD has inherited my old teddy, too. He's (ahem) quite a bit older than yours though. :-)
